Chapter 2075: Let Go Appropriately
Chapter 75 Take a break
Three days, just three days, Ellison walked into the door of the Hearst family for the second time.
Austin and Lydia were waiting in the living room. These three days were like a dream for them. The Pulitzer family has always stood in front of the Hearst family, making all the members of the Hearst family feel uncomfortable. Over the years, the Hearst family has tried their best to cross the Pulitzer family, but they have been beaten back by the Pulitzer family every time. This makes Austin, the current patriarch of the Hearst family, very disappointed. He once thought that he would never be able to fulfill the last wish of his grandfather William Hearst in this life, to cross the Pulitzer family and avenge the Hearst family.
Who would have thought that the appearance of Lin Feng and Ellison three days ago would have changed everything drastically. In just three days, the Pulitzer Company, the leading newspaper company that controls newspapers such as the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and the Arizona Daily Star, was acquired by someone, and the family was in chaos, with a scandal of a daughter suing her father. Austin naturally would not miss this opportunity. All newspapers under the Hearst family reported this incident on the front page, and the Pulitzer family scandal was made known to the world and laughed at by everyone.
And all this originated from Lin Feng and Ellison. This made Austin have to admire the abilities of the two.
"Lydia, it seems that the three conditions you set are not high for Ellison. Are you really going to marry her?" Austin looked gloomy.
Ellison is not a good person, but as a friend and a husband, he should be qualified. Although he was divorced before, it was because he had no money at the time. When he had no money, he had to create some fun and pursue hobbies, which made his ex-wife unbearable and separated. Now Ellison has enough wealth to create romance and pursue hobbies, and he will be a good husband. However, Ellison is already years old, and Lydia is just 21 years old this year. There is a 39-year age difference between the two, which is too big.
Moreover, Ellison is his long-time friend.
"Father, I just said to give him a chance. I don't mean to marry him. Besides, in the United States, there are still many examples of old men and young wives! After Jordan divorced, he found a girlfriend who was 27 years younger than him. The wife of Hefner, the owner of Playboy magazine, is even younger than him. There is also Yang Zhenning, who is 82 and his wife is 28, with a difference of 54 years. Such examples are not only in the United States, but also in the world." Lydia said calmly.
Austin was shocked by the words. However, he didn't know how to preach to this daughter. Lydia grew up with her mother since she was a child, and because of the problem of Lydia's mother's armed robbery that disgraced the Hearst family, he almost ignored her after the divorce, and didn't even know that Lydia existed. It was not until a coincidence that he accidentally ran into Patty taking Lydia on a trip, and Lydia's last name was Hearst. Austin asked and found out that Lydia was his daughter.
Later, after the two negotiated, Patty also hoped that Lydia could have a good background, so she let her return to Austin.
This matter was unknown to outsiders because of the news of the Hearst family, and the Hearst family had always kept a low profile after the Patty incident. It was not until the age of 18, when Lydia came of age, that the outside world knew that Lydia was the daughter of the Hearst family. Therefore, the relationship between father and daughter was not very harmonious, and Austin had no way to change what Lydia decided.
"Well, you are an adult, and I can't restrict you. But no matter what, I hope you can think clearly before making a decision." Austin said helplessly.
"Don't worry, I won't embarrass the Hearst family." Lydia glanced at Austin, and the sarcasm on her face flashed.
Austin was embarrassed. Obviously Lydia was still blaming him for his ruthlessness to Patty. Austin didn't want to say much about this. For him, the patriarch, family honor is more important than anything else. Lydia didn't bear this burden, so she naturally didn't know.
"R, Mr. Lin and Mr. Ellison are here." Butler Xi Meng said respectfully.
"Lydia, let's go greet them." Austin said after tidying up.
Lydia nodded, and after a little tidying up, she went with Austin to greet Lin Feng and Ellison.
"Haha, Mr. Lin, welcome. Ellison, please!" Austin knew that his long-time friend in front of him helped his family solve the Pulitzer family and was considered a benefactor of his family, but he couldn't say a word of welcome. This guy fell in love with his daughter, which was really a bit hateful.
Although it is said that love knows no borders, this is too damn outrageous.
However, no matter how damn outrageous it is, Austin still has the proper etiquette. He welcomed the two in very formally.
"Mr. Lin, I never thought that Pulitzer Company would be acquired in just three days. Although it did not damage their family strength, their family tradition of many years disappeared in just three days. Haha, it's so cool! If old Pulitzer is still alive, I'm afraid he would be pissed to death by his descendants. Especially the scandal of a daughter suing her father, it's so funny." Austin couldn't help laughing.
Lin Feng and Ellison also laughed. Indeed, who could have expected that the Pulitzer family would be in such a mess now? Ellison just made a slight move at that time, and the result was such a mess now. That Lesser was so angry that he sued half of the Pulitzer family members in court, which was simply unheard of.
Crazy! The entire Pulitzer family is crazy.
"Lydia, this is the information about "1" and the detailed information about why "1" kidnapped your mother." Ellison smiled and handed Lydia a USB flash drive with all the information about "1". It is not difficult to search for "1" information, but Ellison understood what Lydia meant. She wanted to know why this organization kidnapped her mother Patty Hearst. Therefore, Ellison spent a lot of money to find the only remaining member of "1" in prison and learned everything from him.
Lydia's heart trembled. She has always wanted to figure this out. If there was no "1" back then, she would have had a very happy childhood, but because of this incident, her childhood was full of gray, and her mother has always suffered from mild depression. Lydia has always wanted to figure this out.
"Thank you!" Lydia took the USB drive and thanked him softly.
Ellison smiled and nodded, then looked at Austin, "Man, now Pulitzer Company is completely finished, should we drink to celebrate?"
Austin was stunned at first. Ellison had completed these two goals, so the third one was not a difficult task for Ellison. Shouldn't he take it out at this time? But he drank at this time, what's the matter? But Austin is not an ordinary person after all, and he quickly understood.
Ellison was giving Lydia an excuse to let her go upstairs to watch the contents of the USB drive and solve the doubts hidden in her heart for more than ten years. Knowing Ellison's difficulties, although Austin was still very angry about Ellison's old cow eating young grass, he had to admit that his move was very clever, very gentlemanly, and very considerate, and it was definitely not something that those young men could do.
If there is love between an old man and a young wife, women are more likely to be happy. At this time, men are very gentlemanly, very considerate, and very patient, and can give women the dual care of husband and father.
Bah! Bah! Bah! Austin spit several times. How could Ellison, this bastard, marry his daughter. He is too old. Although he still looks young, especially his love for sailing competitions for many years (he has won the championship), which makes his body stronger than many young people, but he is a year-old man after all.
With extremely complicated emotions, Austin and Ellison started drinking fiercely. As for his old friend and future father-in-law's drinking contest, Ellison naturally would not be polite. You go back and forth, and soon, the bottles are all over the floor.
The two drank until they were drunk. But it must be admitted that Ellison's body is indeed a bit abnormal. He forced Austin to fall down, but he was only eight-tenths drunk. Although he was eight-tenths drunk, his thoughts were not confused at all, and he was well organized. He discussed the development of the future operating system and the "Forest Screening Room" with Lin Feng, and he was very knowledgeable.
At this time, Lydia's face was covered with light tears. Seeing her father drunk beside her, and then seeing the empty bottles on the table, she frowned secretly. But after thinking about it, she sighed again. Austin has been carrying the honor and disgrace of the Hearst family for too long, too long, and he is too tired. He dare not drink at all, fearing that he will be weak because of alcohol. He is so unrestrained today because the Pulitzer Company has completely collapsed, so he can relax.
"Thank you!" Lydia bowed deeply.
Ellison accepted it calmly. He must accept this bow. He currently has no relationship with Lydia. If she doesn't accept Lydia's greeting, Lydia will feel entangled in her heart and will not be calm when facing him. This is certainly conducive to his pursuit of Lydia, but what Ellison wants is not that Lydia accepts him because of feelings, but that she is conquered by his charm.
"If you complete the third condition, I will accept your pursuit." Lydia said calmly.
"Hehe, Lydia, my lawyer is helping me deal with the will, and I believe it will be completed soon. Then, I will come to see you as a pursuer. And now, it's time for us to talk about business. About Pulitzer Company." Ellison said seriously.
Lydia was stunned. She didn't expect that Ellison, who was crazy about her before, would suddenly be so calm. She felt a faint sense of loss in her heart.
Lin Feng smirked on the side. This trick was taught by Lin Feng. If you are ready, let it go appropriately, the effect will be better! a.
